Executive Recruiter

About Us:

A successful executive recruitment business operating across a range of established and emerging sectors, [Employer hidden — view at passion-project.co.uk] have a proven track record for proactively delivering game-changing senior professionals to a predominantly international client base that ranges from rapid growth start-ups to established corporations.

The Mission-Critical Team:

One of the most successful and rapidly growing practices in our business, the Mission-Critical Construction team here at [Employer hidden] specialize in sourcing and placing high-impact talent for general contractors, mechanical & electrical contractors and engineering consultancies who are focused on projects within the Data Center and Advanced Manufacturing sectors.

Your Role:

As an Executive Recruiter in our Mission-Critical Construction team, you’ll be responsible for meeting billing objectives through the permanent placement of project management, scheduling, estimating, pre-construction, commissioning, VDC/BIM modeling, quantity surveying and design professionals from superintendent to VP level.

We’re a globally operating consultancy so there’ll be no geographical restrictions on the scope of your recruiting activities, but you’ll nonetheless be integrating within and benefiting from an existing team of experienced consultants whose clients and candidates operate primarily across North America and EMEA.

As a 360 consultant, business development will form a significant part of your role, identifying and winning new clients through the proactive marketing of the best talent in the sector.

What We’re Looking For:

• A minimum bachelor’s degree qualification
• Confident, engaging, and articulate interpersonal skills
• First class written and verbal communication in English (additional languages advantageous)
• A bold, dynamic, competitive, and charismatic personality.
• Strong organisational skills, commercial awareness and, above all, fastidious attention to detail (Mission-critical contracting is a highly detail-oriented vertical)
• Self-motivation, proactivity, tenacity, and resilience.
• Proficiency in the use of Microsoft365 products, LinkedIn and AI tools
• The ability to multi-task and prioritise across multiple concurrent projects/campaigns.

Prior recruitment, consulting, sales, or business development experience – or prior exposure to mission-critical contracting – would clearly be advantageous, but this is by no means a prerequisite as full and ongoing training will be provided.  Your success and advancement will more likely be dictated by your attitude, drive and application.

What’s In It For You?

• A highly competitive basic salary
• Company pension scheme
• A transparent and collaborative team culture underpinned by our core values of trust and integrity.
• A comprehensive onboarding process with ongoing training, development, and support
• Clear opportunities to progress through the business as we continue to grow, our talent pathway offering either senior consultant or leadership routes of advancement.
• A fabulous working environment in one of Leeds City Centre’s landmark office buildings
• A rapid selection and assessment process
• Access to cutting edge tools, resources, technology, AI, and software platforms.
• Team social events, incentive-based trips, executive club overseas weekends away.
• (Qualifying) enrolment within GymFlex health & fitness incentive.

If uncapped earning potential and rapid, meritocratic career progression are your prime drivers, then you might prove to be an important component of our continued growth and success.
